Configuration Best Practices

1. Backup before changes: Always backup configuration files before making modifications.

2. Test incremental changes: Change one setting at a time and test thoroughly.

3. Vehicle class balance: Ensure vehicle classes are fairly distributed for competitive racing.

4. Official race timing: Schedule official races during peak server hours for maximum participation.

5. MMR tuning: Adjust MMR gains/losses based on your server's competition level.

6. Entry fees: Set entry fees appropriate to your server's economy.

7. Webhook testing: Test Discord webhooks with a test channel before using production channels.

8. Skill tree integration: Only enable if you have the DevHub Skill Tree resource installed.

9. Translation completeness: Ensure all language strings are translated for consistent user experience.
